Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,

I have a publish/subscribe scenario set up so that there is one publisher writing to a topic and multiple durable subscribers reading from the same topic. My first step is running the publisher application to publish multiple messages to the topic. Why is that when I start up the subscribers after(they each have their own unique ClientID and name) that not all of the subscribers receive the messages? Either some subscribers receive everything or some receive nothing. Isn't the broker supposed to retain all the messages for all of the durable subscribers?

I am currently using the default values set for the messages. Meaning, they're all set to persistent delivery, priority level 4, and have a lifetime of 0, which is an unlimited message lifetime.

Thanks
